Obvious virus is obvious, run Malwarebyte's anti malware and remove it and anything else that pops up.

Simply ending the process is stupid, it probably came from some program you installed.

Ok, but you should bring that up on an antivirus forum or something like that, so that AV software can stop ot before it freaks people out

You shouldn't have more than one or they can get into conflicts between themselves, just use one.

Anti viruses detect viruses buy the filename(not always the case but lets say it is), so if you're the first person to get it the anti virus won't detect it.

Also shitty anti-viruses are just shitty, and they need to be updated...

When this happens again and you end it in task manager you're far from free xD
You're just catching it before it can overtake your computer, the next time you rebooted it'd be there again.
If this happens again I suggest googling the name. Like most fake things like this are often fake virus scanners on your computer, so if you google the name it has and add bleeping computer a lot of the time that site, bleepingcomputer.com has a step by step removal that works very well.

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/viru...-security-2012

See? it's even got a screenshot to show you if it's the right one etc. You can also identify on that site if it's a virus, spyware, malware etc.
They have a thing on there called Rkill that you download and it normally shuts up the virus so you can take care of it, so you don't get zillions of pop ups and things blocking etc. On the site you can also find out how to get past the internet being blocked which is normally done by it changing your proxy settings. Normally if you can't get online or another computer to figure out what kinda virus/how to remove it start it up in safemode with networking which takes like 20 mins.










Little white flowers will never awaken you, not when the cold depths have all but overtaken you.

Dearest, The days are all so long,
and in the shadows I spend them all.
My heart and I long for slumber.
Slumber I'm caressing you, I bless your touch, I lust for you.
Slumber you are not a dream, Not as much as you seem.
- Joao <3
